I found the problem, i had "-steam" in the command arguments inside VS6, i thought it was supposed to be there, then i realized, hl.exe worked directly with no -steam so i omitted it and it worked. Someone said to put it there, i don�t know why really, perhaps i was confusing two different methods of execution.
